May 12, 2011 at 15:08 comment added bobobobo @Tom Beethoven's works (that is, the arrangements themselves) are public domain, the only thing you can copyright is your specific recording of that piece. This makes a lot of sense, since you expended time and effort to assemble a band, perform the recording, and master it.
May 8, 2011 at 22:03 comment added Tamara Wijsman Please note that there these transcriptions are user made and most likely differ from the original music track, even by small mistakes. From there, you still would have to actually perform it. I think there is not much you can do about an individual reverse engineering your piece of music, look at Beethoven. Nor can you do something about people performing it for free, look at all those YouTube covers of which none have received a claim. However, exactly reproducing the original or receiving money for it is most likely illegal unless you have the permission to do so under a contract...

May 5, 2011 at 1:35 comment added Rei Miyasaka Yep, I saw that earlier and it irked me too. I pointed out this exact same attitude on Programmers.SE as a factor in the Japanese software industry's lack of growth. We should get to the bottom of it, or else it's going to start stifling a lot of good discussions.
